Geometry for Capricorn Ascendant
Akhanda Samrajya Yoga is a structural-class yoga that does not depend on a fixed planetary pair. For Capricorn ascendant, evaluate the yoga by checking whether the planets currently described in the formation rule are functional benefics for Capricorn (i.e. they own a kendra or trikona house from the Capricorn ascendant). The formation rule is: The lord of the 2nd, 9th, or 11th house occupies a kendra (1, 4, 7, 10) while Jupiter aspects the 2nd, 5th, or 11th house from the lagna. Phaladeepika classes this as one of the highest royalty yogas.
